What can and should someone who is perceived as a member of a majority group do in relation to those who are members of minority groups, particularly in regard to aiding their activism? (I say "perceived" because whether someone's part of a minority can often be a messy question.)
No it's not. "Minority" simply means there are fewer in the group than outside it. It just happens to be associated with specific racial/cultural minorities and not minorities like, say, people with red hair.

As for how to help them, well, ask them. o.o
